Hmm, from the dmesg output it sounds sort of like your system was already 'sick' before X hung. Perhaps an out-of-memory situation?

Could you please explain more about the conditions leading to this system freeze? And have you seen it more often than just this one time?

Is this a freshly installed system, or did you upgrade from an earlier Ubuntu?

Thanks for your replay

After this happened, I tried Decibel Audio Player --- crashed 4 times with system freeze and X breakdown twice (and active tty1-5) and total system freeze twice;
all crashes occurred when tried to modify some preferences: importing directories, modifying settings like IM output...
maybe the problem somehow Python-related ... waiting for upgrades

The current system is a result of continuous upgrades since ubuntu 9.10 (if I remember well)
